They call it stormy Monday
Jan. 19th, 2016 07:09 amI feel like I did nothing yesterday even though that's patently untrue.
I did a load of laundry, changed the bedding, cleaned everything in the kitchen, went to the gym, went to Asda and dragged home a lot more stuff than I intended to so now the house is full of food, even my knitting-and-Netflix time was spent taking notes on the thing I'm re-watching because I'd like to submit something for an anthology on David Bowie about about how Life on Mars helped me figure out how to like his music.
Normally I'd feel amazing about doing all that in one tired, mentally and physically subpar day. But I guess I'm struggling enough that I don't even get the proper feedback for the things I have done, and feel just like I would if I hadn't gotten dressed or left the house or done anything to speak of.
But I guess you sometimes have to do the things just because you're a grown-up, and not because your brain's gonna give you that chemical cookie to make you feel good about it.
